    What to build with a Rem 700 SA

    I have a "spare" 700 SA currently it is a SPSS 243 in very good condition.
    I have a SA Hunters Edge stock.
    Opening up the bolt face isn't a problem
    Also on hand I have 30-06, 2 x 338 Lapua & the 243 barrels.
    I don't have to use any of those barrels, just they are there.
    So any ideas on what calibre I could build ?
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    a 17 fireball
    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    I've played with my version of a shortened 338 lapua necked down to 7mm, if you choose to go this way be prepared for alot of work to get your brass made, the ballistics is about the same as the 7mm STW with about the same barrel life, but I'm still leaning towards the 338 Norma and the new Berger 300gr hybrid BC.818 for a light high volume shooting practice rifle for hunting, targets and steel. Just need a good brake

    If it's a straight hunter then put the 30 06 on and go kill shit.

    How about something completely different, a .458 SOCOM. not very practical for hunting in NZ but definitely different.

    what about a .17 x 114 russian? Nobody else would have one

    Or

    a .416 x .223rem
    If its guns, tits or tyres it's going to cost you lots of money
